We spent an afternoon together with artist Walid Siti while he was working on his new installation (titled the Third Life) in this enchanted garden part of his home in London. While constructing the levels of the Third Life he kindly shared the story of his everlasting relationship with the Malwiya Tower (the minaret of The Great Mosque of Samarra) and his profound interest in mountains. 

Please visit his website and/or Instagram to learn more about his journey, practice and current projects.

Sandra Havlicek, Tina Kohlmann and Katharina Schücke are three artists who join their expertise to practice as a dynamic trio. Triangulation is a developmental step which they continuously try to engage in and which requires the flexibility and ability to permanently change roles and perspectives in the rotating triad. This process generates surprise, fun and complexity in conceptual thinking and artistic production. Because three minds engage in the depth of decision making, the process opens up for multilayered facets of developing an idea, approaching it’s concept and producing it’s body. Each experimentation system is specific, improvised and grounded in an elementary matter in it’s time. One afternoon in April 2020 we met with HazMatLab collective for an online nail art session. To learn more about HazMatLab and their work - https://www.hazmatlab.org/Follow HazMatLab at https://www.instagram.com/hazmatlab/Follow Collective Çukurcuma at https://www.instagram.com/collectivecukurcuma/Some links which may be useful:Our upcoming group exhibition: Creating a ‘we’ - https://vimeo.com/382397972HazMatLab De Formal interview: https://www.deformal.com/interviews/2017/8/10/interview-with-hazmatlabBasis Frankfurt: http://basis-frankfurt.de/Artfridge interview: http://www.artfridge.de/2019/04/interview-hazmatlab.html
